And in real news, West Ham, with their vanquishing of Manchester City, have now knocked over three of the Premier League's big boys, after already seeing off Arsenal and Liverpool.
But youse jokers carry on with the other code!

Pertinent comments in the Wanganui (no h!) Chronicle editorial – http://www.nzherald.co.nz/wanganui-chronicle/opinion/news/article.cfm?c_id=1503423&objectid=11514466. Also the Herald reports positive worldwide interest in the book – http://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=11513997 – so all we now have to do is resolve the crazy legislation.

Be great to see NZ Labour following UK's lead - http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/sep/13/jeremy-corbyn-labour-leadership-victory-vision - that will surely help the refugee situation?

The ever reliable Rod Oram’s column from yesterday’s SST is relevant – http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/70516151/Rod-Oram-The-great-rates-debate . (Why is it that it is so incredibly difficult to access articles on Stuff? Surely a search for Rod’s columns should give a list in date order descending from the last one, not random stuff from 2009. As the only worthwhile part of the whole paper a little more support would not go astray.)

Business as usual for the neo-liberal multiparty establishment. The list of sins seems to grow longer by the day.

Hard News: The epitome of reason, in reply to
The thread over on http://publicaddress.net/envirologue/fool-me-once-lessons-on-the-tppa-from-free/ is going to become, along with climate degradation, more and more relevant as we are seen to suffer the deprevations they will both cause. This may speed change, but to what? Can't see our armed forces being visionary enough to impose sense.

Too many poor people not spending seems to be causing ruin to the economies of the West as the 1% are not able to keep things moving, so maybe this will force the politicians to consider redistribution of wealth again. Like UKIP someone here will eventually create an organisation that will appeal to enough people to get elected. Hopefully not redolent of the 1930's though....

And Paul tells me it hasn't been published yet, so it's watch this/that space.
